Burlesque Ball

When: Fri., Oct. 25, 9 p.m. 2013Price: $15 ADV, $17 DOS

Given that Ohio Burlesque's Bella Sin is of Hispanic heritage, it's not surprising she'd be into throwing a Dia De Los Muertos bash. Dubbed The Undead Burlesque Ball, tonight's show features headliner Red Rum, a Chicago-based burlesque dancer whose skull-like masks make her look like some kind of zombie sprung back to life. In total, some 12 entertainers will perform; the performances will run the gamut, from "scary to nerdy," as Sin puts it. In addition, fans are invited to bring "offerings" to the dead that they can leave at an alter. The Cleveland Kings and Girls, a local drag queen group, will put on a special Halloween-themed show, and DJ Nemesis will provide the beats. The event takes place tonight at 9 at the Beachland Ballroom and tickets are $15 in advance and $17 on the day of the show. (Niesel)
